Home → Fundraising, Budgets, and Money Management Guide → Fundraising Basics → Member Budgets
Team Member budgets allow you to make positive or negative financial adjustments to a team members fundraising amount. This can be a little complicated so let's walk through an example together:
Team Members Tab > select a team member > select the Member Budget tab.
Assumptions:
- The Argentina Trip costs $1,925.00 with the assumption that each team member is leaving from Los Angeles and has not previously been to Argentina.
- Brad Hockersmith went on this trip last year
- Brad Hockersmith will be originating from PHX and meeting the team at LAX International Airport.
- Argentina charges all visitors a $160 entry visa which is good for 10 years.
Desired Outcome:
- Increase Brad's fundraising goal to account for the additional cost to fly him round trip from PHX -> LAX
- Decrease Brad's fundraising goal by $160 since he does not need to purchase the entry visa a second time.
Result: Brad's adjusted fundraising goal is $2,265.00

It is important to recognize that Member Budget items do have an impact on your total trip budget. While they will not impact the fundraising amounts of other team members they do impact your total trip cost.
